Lake House With Contemporary Amenities

Situated at the end of a quiet road, in a picturesque neighborhood is this quaint, water front cottage; the perfect combination of quintessential lake experience with all the conveniences of modern living. The original structure dates back to 1897 and has been updated with all the modern amenities. From the back porch french doors open to the dining room, which flows into a fully equipped modern kitchen with dishwasher, electric stove, refrigerator, microwave oven and an island for casual meals. Walking through the dining room brings you to the living room, preserved from the original 1897 structure, visible in the ceiling beams and the paneling, but updated with hardwood flooring and fireplace. Off this room is the cozy study, perfect for working on your computer, reading, resting or playing one of the board games found in the cupboard. Beyond the living room is the sun-room. A large tiled area enclosed with sliding glass doors on three sides, and a dining area for enjoying meals while taking in the panoramic view of the lake. There is a small dry-bar and a lovely sitting area for relaxing, entertaining or watching television. Through the sliding glass doors is the large deck, complete with deck furniture, gas grill, and stairs that lead to the private dock. The second floor is accessed from a winding staircase off the living room. There are three bedrooms, each with lovely views of beautiful Lake Chargoggagoggmanchauggagoggchaubunagungamaugg (a.k.a.
